10 March 2020: UC Capitals fans will have the chance to celebrate their 2019/2020 WNBL Championship heroes at a reception at the University of Canberra on Tuesday 10 March.

The reception to celebrate the victorious squad will be held in the Refectory where fans will have the opportunity to meet the players, view the championship trophy and shower the team in streamers and confetti.
General Manager of the UC Capitals, Lucille Bailie says they would love to see all the team’s supporters at UC to celebrate their achievements.
“Our supporters are the UC Capital’s sixth player and the atmosphere they have created at our home games this season has been an integral part of the team’s success.”
UC Capitals players, coaches and staff are looking forward to the opportunity to thank supporters in person on Tuesday before they move onto other commitments.
“We’ve all been a part of something truly special over the past six months and the positive impact the UC Capitals have continues to ripple through our local community. We’re encouraging everyone that can make it to join us for this final opportunity to acknowledge just how much we value these amazing athletes and people,” said Ms Bailie.
